You guys should read or watch The Road.

Good book. Like reading an account of a slow suicide, but good book.

The road is a pretty damn great movie. I haven't read the book, but I heard the movie isn't too far from the book.

Onething that didn't make sense in the movie at least, was that the whole world was just dead. When in reality, life finds a way to survive. I mean hell, if that many people survived, then plants and animals could as well.

there are very many plants upon the terrain in the book...the more sturdy plants that can survive the ashen wasteland.

Since I do not have the book, I shall check out the movie as the other poster said above!

You guys make it sound good. I usually do not watch movies because most of the time they are let downs.

I think the last movie I have completed was Guardian of the Galaxy. Which surprisingly was a alright movie! I greatly enjoyed the graphics.

Honestly, I always thought it reminded me more of like a nuclear winter - or even what would happen in the yellowstone super volcano went off(roughly speaking,they were moving southwards in the US, and you'd probably want to be moving north and keeping to the coasts if that actually happened).

The movie is good. It is very much like the book. The book is written beautifully though, one of my favorite passages has always been the very last words of that book.

"Once there were brook trout in the streams in the mountains. You could see them standing in the amber current where the white edges of their fins wimpled softly in the flow. They smelled of moss in your hand. Polished and muscular and torsional. On their backs were vermiculate patterns that were maps of the world in it's becoming. Maps and mazes. Of a thing which could not be put back. Not be made right again. In the deep glens where they lived, all things were older than man, and they hummed of mystery".

the book wholly outdoes the movie, and i'm not saying that like pretentiously or anything. some movies do a great service to the book, and in the case of The Road, it did...but it still does not compare, because the language just simply cannot be conveyed in filmic form. it is not your Exorcist or 2001 or Deliverance. it's prosody is just too painstakingly perfected.

Never took advantage of it or bought any thing for survival means.

I mean this guy was loaded with pain killers and xanax but he had all the odd stuff to that has no recreational value. I'm not sure what type of shit he was connected to.




Excellent, now I know who to raid :sniper:

I'm going to watch a tailer of this. If I feel interested enough I will watch the movie today. Otherwise I will get around to it. I feel I will watch it today any ways because you guys are saying its good. There's nothing like starting a movie then it just sucked!
